Pope Francis passed away this week at age 88, leaving behind a legacy of change. In this episode of PBS News Weekly, we take a look at his remarkable life and what comes next for the Catholic Church. We also zero in on the war in Ukraine, where peace talks broke down and President Trump showed growing frustration with both Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Russian President Vladimir Putin. Finally, economics correspondent Paul Solman looks at how manufacturers, workers and consumers will be affected by President Trump’s tariffs on aluminum.
